### Blockly JSON Serialization with BlocklyWorkspace Component
Source: https://context7.com/nbudin/react-blockly/llms.txt
This example demonstrates how to use the `BlocklyWorkspace` component from `react-blockly` to manage Blockly workspaces with JSON serialization. It shows how to define an initial workspace state using JSON, configure the toolbox, and handle changes in both JSON and XML formats. The component provides a streamlined way to embed and control Blockly editor instances, including setting up workspace configurations for grids and interaction.
```jsx
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { BlocklyWorkspace } from 'react-blockly';
function JsonSerializationExample() {
const [workspaceJson, setWorkspaceJson] = useState(null);
const [workspaceXml, setWorkspaceXml] = useState(null);
const initialJson = {
blocks: {
languageVersion: 0,
blocks: [
{
type: 'text_print',
id: 'sample_block',
x: 100,
y: 100,
inputs: {
TEXT: {
shadow: {
type: 'text',
fields: {
TEXT: 'Hello, World!'
}
}
}
}
}
]
}
};
const toolbox = {
kind: 'categoryToolbox',
contents: [
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Text',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text_print' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text_join' }
]
}
]
};
const handleJsonChange = (newJson) => {
setWorkspaceJson(newJson);
console.log('Workspace JSON updated:', JSON.stringify(newJson, null, 2));
};
const handleXmlChange = (newXml) => {
setWorkspaceXml(newXml);
};
return (
);
}
export default LifecycleExample;
```

### Configure Read-Only Blockly Workspace in React
Source: https://context7.com/nbudin/react-blockly/llms.txt
This snippet shows how to render a Blockly workspace in a read-only mode using the 'react-blockly' library. It prevents user modifications and is useful for displaying examples or tutorials. The configuration is done via the 'workspaceConfiguration' prop, setting 'readOnly' to true.
```jsx
import React from 'react';
import { BlocklyWorkspace } from 'react-blockly';
function ReadOnlyExample() {
const exampleProgram = `
This is a read-only example5
`;
const toolbox = {
kind: 'categoryToolbox',
contents: [
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Text',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text_print' }
]
},
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Loops',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'controls_repeat_ext' }
]
}
]
};
return (
Example Program (Read-Only)
This workspace demonstrates a sample program. It cannot be modified.
);
}
export default ReadOnlyExample;
```

### Embed Blockly Editor with BlocklyWorkspace Component
Source: https://context7.com/nbudin/react-blockly/llms.txt
Demonstrates how to use the BlocklyWorkspace component to embed a fully functional Blockly editor in a React application. It includes configuration for the toolbox, initial XML, workspace settings, and event handlers for code generation and XML changes. Dependencies include React and the react-blockly library.
```jsx
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { BlocklyWorkspace } from 'react-blockly';
function MyBlocklyEditor() {
const [xml, setXml] = useState('');
const [generatedCode, setGeneratedCode] = useState('');
const toolbox = {
kind: 'categoryToolbox',
contents: [
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Logic',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'controls_if' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'logic_compare' }
]
},
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Loops',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'controls_repeat_ext' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'controls_whileUntil' }
]
}
]
};
const handleWorkspaceChange = (workspace) => {
// Generate JavaScript code from blocks
const code = window.Blockly.JavaScript.workspaceToCode(workspace);
setGeneratedCode(code);
};
return (
{generatedCode}
);
}
export default MyBlocklyEditor;
```

### Embed Blockly using BlocklyWorkspace Component
Source: https://github.com/nbudin/react-blockly/blob/main/README.md
Demonstrates how to use the `BlocklyWorkspace` component to embed Blockly into a React application. It includes setting up initial XML and handling XML changes via a callback. Requires React 16.8+.
```jsx
import { BlocklyWorkspace } from 'react-blockly';

### React Blockly Dynamic Toolbox Configuration
Source: https://context7.com/nbudin/react-blockly/llms.txt
This React component configures a Blockly workspace with a dynamically changing toolbox. It uses state to manage the difficulty level, which in turn determines the available blocks. The `BlocklyWorkspace` component from `react-blockly` is used, and its `toolboxConfiguration` prop is updated based on the selected difficulty.
```jsx
import React, { useState, useCallback } from 'react';
import { BlocklyWorkspace } from 'react-blockly';
function DynamicToolboxExample() {
const [difficulty, setDifficulty] = useState('beginner');
const [xml, setXml] = useState('');
const getToolbox = (level) => {
const beginner = {
kind: 'categoryToolbox',
contents: [
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Basic Blocks',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text_print' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'math_number' }
]
}
]
};
const intermediate = {
kind: 'categoryToolbox',
contents: [
...beginner.contents,
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Logic',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'controls_if' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'logic_compare' }
]
}
]
};
const advanced = {
kind: 'categoryToolbox',
contents: [
...intermediate.contents,
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Functions',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'procedures_defnoreturn' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'procedures_callnoreturn' }
]
},
{
kind: 'category',
name: 'Variables',
custom: 'VARIABLE'
}
]
};
return level === 'beginner' ? beginner
: level === 'intermediate' ? intermediate
: advanced;
};
const handleImportError = useCallback((error) => {
console.error('Failed to import workspace:', error);
alert('Error loading workspace: ' + error.message);
}, []);
return (
);
}
export default DynamicToolboxExample;
```

### Use Blockly Workspace Hook for Custom React Integration
Source: https://context7.com/nbudin/react-blockly/llms.txt
The `useBlocklyWorkspace` hook allows for custom integration of Blockly into a React application. It injects a Blockly workspace into a specified DOM element, providing the workspace instance and debounced XML/JSON representations. This hook is useful for scenarios requiring custom DOM structures or advanced control over rendering. It accepts configurations for the toolbox, initial workspace state, and workspace behavior, along with callbacks for workspace events like injection, disposal, and changes.
```jsx
import React, { useRef, useState, useCallback } from 'react';
import { useBlocklyWorkspace } from 'react-blockly';
import * as Blockly from 'blockly/core';
function CustomBlocklyEditor() {
const blocklyRef = useRef(null);
const [savedXml, setSavedXml] = useState(null);
const toolbox = {
kind: 'flyoutToolbox',
contents: [
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'text_print' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'math_number' },
{ kind: 'block', type: 'math_arithmetic' }
]
};
const handleInject = useCallback((workspace) => {
console.log('Workspace injected:', workspace.id);
// Add custom plugins or configurations here
}, []);
const handleDispose = useCallback((workspace) => {
console.log('Workspace disposed:', workspace.id);
// Cleanup custom plugins
}, []);
const handleWorkspaceChange = useCallback((workspace) => {
const blockCount = workspace.getAllBlocks(false).length;
console.log('Current blocks:', blockCount);
}, []);
const { workspace, xml, json } = useBlocklyWorkspace({
ref: blocklyRef,
toolboxConfiguration: toolbox,
initialXml: savedXml,
workspaceConfiguration: {
grid: {
spacing: 25,
length: 5,
colour: '#888',
snap: true
},
move: {
scrollbars: true,
drag: true,
wheel: true
}
},
onInject: handleInject,
onDispose: handleDispose,
onWorkspaceChange: handleWorkspaceChange
});
const saveWorkspace = () => {
if (xml) {
localStorage.setItem('blockly-workspace', xml);
alert('Workspace saved!');
}
};
const loadWorkspace = () => {
const loaded = localStorage.getItem('blockly-blockly-workspace');
if (loaded) {
setSavedXml(loaded);
}
};
return (
);
}
export default CustomBlocklyEditor;
```

### Embed Blockly using useBlocklyWorkspace Hook
Source: https://github.com/nbudin/react-blockly/blob/main/README.md
Illustrates how to use the `useBlocklyWorkspace` hook to inject a Blockly workspace into a custom DOM element within a React component. This approach offers more control over Blockly's rendering. Requires React 16.8+.
```jsx
import { useBlocklyWorkspace } from 'react-blockly';
function MyBlocklyHookEmbed() {
const blocklyRef = useRef(null);
const { workspace, xml } = useBlocklyWorkspace({
ref: blocklyRef,
toolboxConfiguration: MY_TOOLBOX, // this must be a JSON toolbox definition
initialXml: xml,
});
return (
// Blockly will be injected here
)
}
